APPLICATION FAILED TO START
***************************
Description:
The dependencies of some of the beans in the application context form a cycle:
webSecurityConfiguration (field com.automic.analytics.backend.security.ApiKeyCache com.automic.analytics.backend.config.web.WebSecurityConfiguration.apiKeyCache)
+-----+
| apiKeyCache
? ?
| apiKeysManager (field private com.automic.analytics.backend.security.ApiKeyCache com.automic.analytics.backend.security.ApiKeysManager.apiKeyCache)
+-----+
Action:
Relying upon circular references is discouraged and they are prohibited by default. Update your application to remove the dependency cycle between beans. As a last resort, it may be possible to break the cycle automatically by setting spring.main.allow-circular-references to true.
=======================================================================
Environment
Release : 21.0.5
Cause
This is a configuration issue. The application.properties file in 21.0.4 introduces a new parameter spring.main.allow-circular-references=true.
If the application.properties files from the version 21.0.3 is maintained, the backend installation will run into this kind of error.
Resolution
Deploy the application.properties file from the new version, adjust it accordingly and backend should be able to start.
Additional Information
This kind of error messages in the log files mostly will indicate a problem with a parameter that backend analytics does not find in the current application.properties file.
============================================================================================================================
webSecurityConfiguration (field com.automic.analytics.backend.security.ApiKeyCache com.automic.analytics.backend.config.web.WebSecurityConfiguration.apiKeyCache)
+-----+
| apiKeyCache
? ?
The first action is to verify if the currently used configuration files has been updated as well.
